Roland Boutique A-01 FAQ
Q.
What types of device can the A-01 be connected to via Bluetooth?
The A-01 can be connected to an iOS device (iPhone or iPad) or Mac that supports Bluetooth 4.X (Bluetooth(R) Smart,
Bluetooth LE).
* On iOS devices, it might not be possible to use the A-01 with some apps.
Q.
The pitch of the A-01’s internal synth is slightly wrong; can I adjust it?
In some cases, the pitch of the internal synth might have a slight range of error, but this is not a malfunction.
As necessary, use the System parameter “Master Tune” (-64–+63) to adjust the pitch.
Q.
I want to use multiple A-01 units via Bluetooth, but their names are identical so I
can’t distinguish them.
You can distinguish their names by adding a number to the end of the A-01’s device name that is seen from
Bluetooth.

Q.
I can’t synchronize the A-01 with an external device and start/stop the step
sequencer.

Q.
A device connected to the A-01’s CV/GATE jacks sometimes fails to sound.
The range of pitches that can be output from the CV jack is six octaves (0V–6V). Pitches outside this range cannot be

The key that is specified as the System setting “CV Ref Note” will be 0V.
Set this to obtain the necessary range of pitches.
